Hey everyone,
Well, I've got software up-and-running. I'm very pleased w/ the UI, and it seems pretty slick. I have one issue. My music collection is very large (30K+ songs). One feature on the PC Jukebox software that comes handy w/ a collection that large is Browsing by Artist - once an Artist is selected, you see all the songs by that artist, along w/ the covers of all the albums - you can select an album cover and view only the songs in that album. This makes is simpler for big collections w/ lots of artists.
It seems Freebox will only allow me to Browse by Album cover. I noticed I can search by artist, but it only returns a list of songs by the artist..... which can be hard to manage if I search for an artist that has 30 or so full albums in my collection.
My question is, is there a way I can browse by Artist? If not, what do those of you w/ large music collections do is order to make it easier to deal w/ thousands of artists?
Yes, go to the Filter by Genre, Artist or Year button (Top Button), choose Artist and then choose the artist you are lookinmg for, all of the albums from that artist will show up in the Album View. Just an FYI, for this search to work, you will need to have checked the "Generate Genre, Artist and Year Libraries" in the Config program while building your Music Database.
Ok, I'll give it a shot tonight. Thanks!
